Re: [OT] Animated .GIF's

[Colin Kilburn]

Jerry,

I was just toying with something similar yesterday.   My image was 
inside a div, though, and the animation works fine.  ... i.e. I changed 
the display attribute on the div, not the image.   I'm also using 
mozilla on mandrake 9.   Not sure about how it behaves in IE.

HTH,
Colin

can't seem to find any info on my problem.  I'm hoping someone might be able
to shed some light on this for me.....
I've got a simple animated .gif (Loading Data... kind of thing) that I need
to display whenever my submit button is clicked.  Until the submit button is
clicked though, I hide the image 

        <img border=0 id="loadingData" src="loadingData.gif"
style="display:none;">
When the user clicks the submit button, I use javascript to change the style
to "display:inline".  The image appears, but the animation doesn't seem to
work.  If I load the image without the "display:none" or even with
"display:inline", the animation works fine.  It only seems to fail when the
initial display setting is 'none'.  What gives?  Am I just missing an
additional setting?
Thanks.
